Abstract
A method of determining and utilizing a maximum stabilization height of a moving airplane includes: determining a nominal total height at any point of the nominal path of the airplane, determining a total height of the airplane, determining a nominal maximum total height that the airplane is able to reach from its current position corresponding to a nominal total height and according to an optimum total height variation law, determining the maximum stabilization height corresponding to the nominal maximum total height that the airplane is able to reach, and determining whether to continue or to interrupt a landing procedure during the final flight phase of the airplane based on the determined maximum stabilization height.
